Hydrocarbons *Compounds with just Hydrogen and Carbon
Reference Tables used with Organic Chemistry Table P Table Q
Types of Hydrocarbons: • Alkanes *have single bonds between carbons *end in “ane” * formula = CnH2n+2 methane ethane propane
Branched Chain Alkanes • Need at least 4 carbons • Isomers: same molecular formula but different structural formulas C5H12
Types of Hydrocarbons: • Alkenes: *have one double bond between carbons *end in “ene” * formula = CnH2n ethenepropene 1-butene 2-butene
Types of Hydrocarbons: 3. Alkynes: *have one triple bond between carbons *end in “yne” * formula = CnH2n-2 ethyne propyne
Homologous Series: • A group of compounds that vary by a common increment • Table Q
Derivatives of Hydrocarbons • One or more atoms replace Hydrogen in the hydrocarbon Alkyl Group: *an alkane with a missing Hydrogen Methane CH4 CH3 Ethane C2H6 Ethyl C2H5
Derivatives of Hydrocarbons Functional Group: *a group of elements that determine the type of compound Table R Alcohol - Base – NaOH not a functional group
